Published by: tms_crazy_taxi on Sunday, January 23, 2011
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,

2K Games and Gearbox Software announced Duke Nukem Forever's launch date. Yes, you heard right. Duke Nukem Forever and it's coming this year.


Legendary hero Duke Nukem will make his triumphant return in Duke Nukem Forever® on the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation® 3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC on May 3, 2011 in North America and May 6, 2011 internationally!

Duke Nukem is one of the biggest and most recognizable brands in the interactive entertainment industry. Irreverent, non-PC, and uber macho, Duke Nukem is the perfect, uncompromising ass-kicking hero to remedy the overdose of today’s gaming archetypes. Duke brings his signature brand of babe-lovin’, cigar-smoking, beer-chugging and ass-kicking action as he saves the Earth and its babes from hordes of invading aliens. Where will you be when Duke Nukem Forever launches? Better mark your calendars, Duke’s legend is being told this May and his brand new trailer, viewable at www.dukenukemforever.com, promises to blow your mind!

“The moment fans all over the world have been waiting for is almost here,” declared Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “May 3, 2011 marks Duke’s return as he unleashes his brash and brutally honest wit on the world. His return is going to be epic and one that will make video gaming history!”

    You all know the game and you have all played it or spit out one of the many catch phrases in your life time but now you will be able to do it again but this time you can do it from the XBOX 360 console, this is going to be a damn near got to have game if you have ever played this game so get your MS points ready.

    The ShackNews post reads as follows: The Xbox Live Arcade version of 3D Realms' classic shooter Duke Nukem 3D is arriving on September 24, GameTrailers has revealed. The price of the downloadable title remains unknown.

    In addition to the classic Duke experience, Duke 3D XBLA includes an innovative replay and clip sharing feature, online co-op and deathmatch, achievements, and concept art unlocks.

    I'm sure we will post up to date info on this game title as soon as get more info but till then if you have not seen this game get to looking it up as the humor alone is worth the time it takes to play though the game.
